Back in 2012-2013, I did a type of competitive debate in american high school called "policy debate". That year, the topic (which we debate the full year about) involved transportation infrastructure. At the time, my partner and I read an affirmative about how good mass transit is. Randal O'Toole is the primary author of "mass transit is bad" style arguments used against us. It was so prolific that I had a counter piece of evidence titled "O'Toole is a tool" which just tried to character assissinate him. What is he doing still being relavent and stuff? I had judges on my debate circuit that apperently knew him in real life and mentioned at the time that he was old... Edit: for anyone that wants to know O'toole's canadian, extremely liberal equivilent who supports mass transit, I recommend you checkout the work of Todd Litman from the Victoria Transportation Institute. He wrote most of the evidence for "mass transit good" and has publicly feuded with O'toole multiple times.
